Pentagon teams up with Apple, Boeing to develop wearable tech

Defense Secretary Ash Carter awarded US$75 million on Friday to help a consortium of high-tech firms and researchers develop electronic systems packed with sensors flexible enough to be worn by soldiers or molded onto the skin of a plane. Carter said funding for the Obama administration's newest manufacturing institute would go to the FlexTech Alliance, a consortium of 162 companies, universities and other groups, from Boeing , Apple and Harvard, to Advantest Akron Polymer Systems and Kalamazoo Valley Community College. The group will work to advance the development and manufacture of so-called flexible hybrid electronics, which can be embedded with sensors and stretched, twisted and bent to fit aircraft or other platform where they will be used. He was speaking at NASA's Ames Research Center in the heart of Silicon Valley.

Most reliable techniques for EE estimation are too impractical for deployment in unsupervised free-living environments; those which do prove practical for unsupervised use often poorly estimate EE when the subject is working to change their altitude by walking up or down stairs or inclines. This study evaluates the augmentation of a standard triaxial accelerometry waist-worn wearable sensor with a barometric pressure sensor (as a surrogate measure for altitude) to improve EE estimates, particularly when the subject is ascending or descending stairs.

Thin Batteries, Thin Film Batteries. Imagine a world where everything is smart and connected.

Thin Batteries, Thin Film Batteries

A world where every product – from washing machines to light switches, pacemakers to hospital gowns, wristwatches to running shoes – can provide useful data that make our lives better and easier... Where thousands of wireless sensors networks help optimize crop planting and irrigation, monitor avalanche and forest fire conditions, regulate city water systems and automobile traffic. Small medical sensors and surgical instruments are rapidly becoming intelligent and therefore they must be powered - often using miniature rechargeable batteries.

Integrated batteries must have several key properties in order to insure safe operation and protect patient health. Cymbet-GlobalSpec-Webinar-Powering -Wearable-Tech-and-IoE.

Bluetooth-hacking-and-its-prevention-2014.pdf. The One-Stop Shop for Big Data. It is generally accepted that big data can be explained according to three V’s: Velocity, Variety and Volume.

The One-Stop Shop for Big Data

In a 2001 research report, META Group (now Gartner) analyst Doug Laney defined big data as being three-dimensional, i.e. increasing volume (amount of data), velocity (speed of data in and out), and variety (range of data types and sources). Later in 2012 Gartner updated the definition of big data as high volume, high velocity, high variety.

Although I do not want to diminish the importance of the definition by Gartner, I do think that big data can be better explained by adding a few more V’s. These V’s explain important aspects of big data and a big data strategy that organisation cannot ignore. Wearables - A Data Scientist's Dream Come True. Everyone knows that data scientists love data and the more of it, the greater the love.

Wearables - A Data Scientist's Dream Come True

As a result, the surging interest in wearables is just what the doctor ordered because these electronic devices collect enormous treasure troves of data. In turn, it is the job of data scientists to make sense of it all, unlock secrets, and assign economic value. As a data scientist, it is a dream come true! Today’s wearable apps are embracing the 3 Vs of big data to translate growing data stores containing telemetry data originating from wearable devices into significant value for users.

Healthcare is one industry seeing immeasurable benefit from wearables.

HACS is a lightweight, wearable communication system to enable wireless transmission of hand-signals and gathered strategic and tactical information to the dismount warfighter.

Human Machine Interfaces - Anthrotronix

Previous operations units communicated using short-range radios and allow for only one team member to transmit information at a time. The HACS system improves and integrates a team’s status and communications with an ergonomic, low-power, bi-directional system that allows for real time automatic status gathering and hand-signal detection.

The system includes an instrumented glove and haptic communication vest allowing for automated detection and recognition of standard hand-and-arm signals, as well as body position and movements. The system also includes a haptic feedback system that can be integrated into a warfighter’s uniform. Blog — Sensor Fusion: Keeping It Simple. Withings Activité. Brain Viewer. Program « QS15.

Rapid advances in personal healthcare systems based on implantable and wearable medical devices promise to greatly improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment for a range of medical conditions.

MedMon: Securing Medical Devices Through Wireless Monitoring and Anomaly Detection

However, the increasing programmability and wireless connectivity of medical devices also open up opportunities for malicious attackers. Unfortunately, implantable/wearable medical devices come with extreme size and power constraints, and unique usage models, making it infeasible to simply borrow conventional security solutions such as cryptography.

Cool Glass One debuts at CES Asia - Business Insider. Apple Acquires Augmented Reality Company Metaio. Apple has acquired Metaio, an augmented reality startup that launched way back in 2003 as an offshoot of a project at Volkswagen. The company’s site said it stopped taking new customers, and now a legal document shows Apple has bought it. The document confirms a transfer of shares of the startup to Apple on May 21st/22nd. When asked by TechCrunch, Apple responded with its standard reply it gives as confirmation of acquistions, “Apple buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans.”

The company began showing signs that something was clearly amiss when it canceled its user conference in San Francisco earlier this month and later took down the company’s Twitter accounts.
